Slated

My rating, 3.5 stars

“Kyla’s memory has been erased,
her personality wiped blank,
her memories lost for ever.

She’s been Slated.

The government claims she was a terrorist and that they are giving her a second chance - as long as she plays by their rules. But echoes of the past whisper in Kyla’s mind. Someone is lying to her, and nothing is as it seems. Who can she trust in her search for the truth?”

Hmm, so my thoughts on this book were that, “Okay storyline, but its Uber slow.”

That pretty much sums up everything. At first it was nothing but slow. The only thing that urged me to go on was the fact that I had to right a review.
Then it started to get a teeny tiny but more interesting.
She starts to go to school, and becomes best friends with this guy Ben. Ben is also slated.
But then they slowly start to like each other more than friends. Nothing beyond several kisses, and longing looks.

A girl at school goes missing and later she finds she has been slated. One of the teachers goes missing after drawing a picture of the missing girl. This all brings out the fight in Kyla.

What I love about it is the futuristic world she lives in. Between years 2020-2060 (I can’t remember exactly which year.).

Sadly, as complex as this book is, the deal breaker was the extremely slow start. Great book. But I can’t come to love it as so many other people love it.
